I have seen this done before and it looks real nice im trying to figure out what parts i need does the CRX console just have one big plastic peice that bolts up to my console fram thats in my car now? I am looking on ebay for the parts and have seen a couple of different things this is one and this is the other that i have seen i dont know witch i need i like the the first on but dont know if it would work please let me know how to do this and please post pics of 88-91 crx or a civic dx with this mod done thans alot

 

u need to swap the whole crx dash if u wantr the ceneter console but the one on top is a civic one if u find that its gold hard to find man

 

so i cant just buy the plastic and bolt it up. i have to have the metal frame from the crx that the plastic bolts to im confused??

 

any one have pics of this mod?

 

I think that you can do it, you will need to make a filler plate for the top where it will not meet up.

 

no no no. the one on teh top is from a hatch it will fit with no mods its for ur dash but the one on the bottom is from a rex and will not fit without modification

 

I have done it in my civic dx. Pain in the ***. You need the mounting bracket from the donor crx. You also have to trim the top of the console to make it fit. When you test mount it you will know what I mean. You also have to have a trim piece made. I had one done at the local stereo shop. It will fit but it won't bolt up the same. Here are some links to a few pics I took of mine... http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill...teriorpics.htm

I have an 88 Civic Std. and I did a CRX dash and center console swap for the hell of it since I had the parts laying around. To make it right, you'll need the entire dash and center console from an 88-91 CRX. I don't see how you could use just the console and get it to fit the Civic dash, but anything's possible I guess.
It's easy to do and there's really no guess work involved. The only problem I ran into was the instrument cluster wiring was different in the 88 than the 91 CRX Si cluster I used. I just ended up making a hybrid cluster from parts of both. I don't have any pics but I could take some, although it just looks like you are looking at a CRX inside.

 

why bother modifying it...it'll look like S**T regarless. don't be lazy and cheap...get the WHOLE dash. else don't bother.
im not buddy i was wondering what i needed to do it thats all it has nothing to do with being lazy and cheap

 

The first pic is a "center audio console" from a 92-95 Civic. The CRX dash's vents are angled towards the driver so the console is angled to match...it won't work straight up with a Civic dash.

 

Chill man, someone brought up sticking a CRX center console on a Civic dash. I wasn't talking about your post.

 

ok so what if you have the whole dash from a crx? will it just bolt in or does it need modification? see i have a whole dash and i know the only thing that won't work is the cluster but will a civic si cluster fit in its place?

 

Whole dash bolts right up.
